FedEx Gets its First BrightDrop EV600 Delivery Vans from GM

There's a lot of talk about the all-electric models that General Motors is preparing to introduce in the coming months and years, which will be based on the Ultium platform developed by the auto giant.

However, other lesser-known products will also see the light of day thanks to this structure, particularly on the commercial side. This week, General Motors delivered the first units of its BrightDrop EV600 delivery van to FedEx. The model was first presented in concept form in January of 2021.

The first five units just delivered are first payment on of a 500-unit order FedEx has placed for the BrightDrop EV600.

Given that the model was announced in January, General Motors is proud to claim that the EV600s delivered to FedEx represent the “fastest built vehicles, from concept to market, in General Motors history”. As its name suggests, the electric van offers more than 600 cu ft of cargo space. The Ultium batteries that power it provide about 400 km of range.
